Why name it Shershah ?

Was it a nickname for Capt Vikram Batra. Why not Vikram ? CharanRawat (talk) 04:22, 7 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Raising this point since this is a biopic based on real life events. Or have the writers / directors taken creative licenses to to make a mockery of the supreme sacrifice of Vikram Batra ? Will not be surprised given that this is a movie directed by Karan Johar CharanRawat (talk) 04:25, 7 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Shershaah was the actual codename given to Batra before the capture of Pt. 5140. Shershaah translates to "King of Lions", which does not appear to be a mockery or an insult of any sort. --2405:201:4013:80F1:8C80:A00F:E9B2:6937 (talk) 22:50, 17 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Isn't it religions, not castes?

In the plot section one of the sentence says that "Dimple's father refuses to accept Vikram because they belong to different castes." This is not true as in both the movie and real life they were of different religions not caste, shouldn't this error be corrected? Flag Mechanic (talk) 09:08, 29 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Likely AI-generated text

Hi - I added the AI generated tag here in reference to the edits by Thefallguy2025. Their edits have consistently displayed indicators of potential LLM output (some of their past edits have kept the chatgpt parameter in the refs), and so I am tagging them all as it is unlikely they suddenly stopped using it.

Since their text remains in the current version of this article, and it is unclear how much review was done of the output, it all needs review for sourcing, tone, accuracy/hallucinations, etc. (This applies even to changes that are "just" copy edits, as AI copy edits commonly introduce editorializing, subtle factual errors, unattributed opinion, non-neutral language, etc., even when they claim otherwise.)
